OVERVIEW
ProActor is a flexible, reusable solution that is capable of high-performance and ProActor has an Event Listener Gateway. This may be a general Event Listener, which accepts pushed Events, or it may be composed of one or many Event Trappers, which pull events from the system(s) being monitored. The Event XML-izer normalizes the published event into an XML document, based on its DTD. The Event Matcher then matches the subscribers and once the event subscribers are known, the Rules Engine exposes the event to the subscriber's conditions -- the rules set by the subscriber to determine what action should be taken such as sending a notification or invoking a system process. The Notifications Enhancer then adds the information about the subscribers' profile (delivery preferences and calendar lookup) to the notification message.
Finally the Notifications Presentation Service processes the enhanced XML message by applying the appropriate XSL and XFO to the message, depending on the subscribers' delivery preference to convert it into the format that the specific Delivery Gateway can understand and deliver to the subscriber. speedy delivery. It can be integrated into any business / system environment for listening to configured events and notifying interested subscribers about it.
ProActor enables real-time monitoring, flexible notification, efficient resolution and exception tracking of DW, DSS, ETL, Messaging and Web events. It provides an easyto- use Subscriber Interface for subscribers to register and create personalized rules using a Rules Wizard. It also allows the subscribers to profile their notifications delivery preferences and action authorization mechanisms.
For events that require
resolution, ProActor may be coupled with Issue Tracking
System to provide the ability to track, resolve and
manage the knowledge gained from the resolution for
future use.

KEY FEATURES
AmSoft has designed and implemented a solution for personalized Rule-based Event Monitoring and Tracking- ProActor. ProActor automates the monitoring of various (configured) events, matching them with the subscriber-defined filters and notifying subscribers of the events. Various event generators like ETL Processing Systems, Business Process Systems, Decision Support Systems, Mail System, etc. can register with ProActor, specifying what events they will publish. The primary capabilities of ProActor in a hosting infrastructure are
Subscriptions - enabling the subscribers to select their topics of interest (e.g. Sales made, Inventory falling below threshold, etc.), define the condition (pattern) to filter events and specify the delivery mechanism for notifications.
Event Monitoring, Matching and Notification Delivery - interfacing with various event sources (e.g. ETL Processes, ERP Systems, Messaging, Stock news, etc.), detecting and generating an event; matching these events with subscriptions and delivering the notification from publishers to subscribers, based on subscriber preferences. The delivery mechanism could be linked to the subscriber's calendar or presence information, and the delivery channel.
Notification Response Mechanism - once the notification is delivered to the customer, response is triggered based on user-defined rules that indicate the action that needs to be taken, once it is validated through an authorization mechanism e.g. entering a PIN during a voice response.
Tracking and Collaborative
Action - allows a group action to be taken on an issue
or problem or allows assignment to another person. It
also tracks the issue to its closure and maintains data
for historical and data mining reasons.
